I have eczema spots all over that seem to get worse in the winter. I've tried the perscription creams/lotions but never entirely get rid of it. Anyone know of anything natural that might help?

I have it too. You need to start taking EFA (essential fatty acids). Start with on liquid gel a day and slowly add one a week until taking like 4. IT will work if you start soon.

My little boy had eczema on his cheeks. I was not sure what method to use but I didn't want to make my boy go through any surgery treatments at this young age. Some suggested a plastic surgeon since it was in a very visible location but our family doctor recommend this natural guide.

Being a sufferer of severe eczema myself for 6 years, I feel entitled to know something about it. My first tip is the ALLOPATHY DOES NOT WORK. The steriod creams, the steroids, the everything just makes the eczema come back worse. I would suggest using either Ayurvedic or Homeopathy treatment, as both are natural. You could also use coconut oil on your skin, provided you don't mind the smell

My 2 year old daughter had a really bad eczema breakout recently and the dermatologist said to get cereve. (sarave) It put the moisture back in her skin that she needed and she only takes a bath avery 2-3 days which also helps hold in the moisture for her. aveeno for babies works really well. You would need to reapply the creams 2-3 times daily. You can get the cereve from a drugstore(they may have to special order it for you.). Good luck. And try not to scratch!!

Eczema patients can avoid scratchy fibers for softer ones like bamboo, cotton, or silk, which are gentler on the skin. Opting to buy organic fibers can also be a wise, healthy, and eco-friendly alternative. Learn here https://tr.im/gxwFn

I have eczema and have found that the only thing that really gets rid of it is moisturizing regularly with a good moisturizer like Johnston's or E45 and getting lots of sleep and a healthier diet. hope that helps

UV light. Since I've been tanning, the eczema spot on my eyelid has completely disappeared.
Incidentally, ProTopic did nothing for me, either.

I've had eczema all my life because of my asthma and have tried, hydrocortizone, and many other steroid creams. but aquaphor works for the dryness and natural cocoa butter works for the dark spots.

Cortaid may not be natural, but its over the counter cream. It works pretty good.
